Isaiah Chapter 2

1The word which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2And it will come to pass in the last days

That the mountain of the house of the Lord will be established

As the foremost of the mountains.

And it will be exalted above the hills,

And all the Gentiles will flock to it.

3And many peoples will go,

And they will say,

“Come, let's go up to the mountain of the Lord

– To the house of the God of Jacob –

And he will instruct us concerning his ways,

And let us walk in his paths.”

For the law will go out from Zion,

And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

4And he will judge among nations

And convict many peoples.

And they will beat their swords into ploughshares

And their spears into pruning shears.

Nation will not lift up sword against nation,

And they will no longer learn warfare.

5O house of Jacob,

Come, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.

6For you have forsaken your people

– The house of Jacob –

For they are full of eastern practices,

And they divine by clouds like the Philistines,

And they make alliances with foreigners.

7And his land has been filled with silver and gold,

And there is no end to his treasure stores.

And his land has been filled with horses,

And there is no end to his chariots.

8And his land has been filled with idols.

They worship the work of their hands

– What their fingers have made.

9Then when a man is made low,

And a person is humbled,

Do not lift them up.

10Go into the rock,

And hide in the dust,

For fear of the Lord

And because of the splendour of his majesty.

11A man's arrogant eyes will be humbled,

And the haughtiness of the people will be brought low,

And the Lord alone will be exalted

On that day.

12For the day of the Lord of hosts

Is against all the proud and haughty,

And against everyone exalted,

And each one will be humbled,

13And against all the cedars of Lebanon,

Which are high and exalted,

And against all the oaks of Bashan,

14And against all the high mountains,

And against all the exalted hills,

15And against every tall tower,

And against every fortified wall,

16And against all the ships of Tarshish,

And against all attractive sights.

17And the arrogance of man will be brought low,

And the haughtiness of people will be humbled,

And the Lord alone will be exalted

On that day.

18And the idols will vanish in their entirety.

19And they will go into the caves in the rocks

And the caverns of the ground,

For fear of the Lord

And because of the splendour of his majesty

When he arises to terrify the earth.

20On that day

Man will throw his silver idols

And his golden idols,

Which were made for him to worship,

To the moles and bats,

21As he goes into the clefts in the rocks,

And into the cracks in the outcrops,

For fear of the Lord

And because of the splendour of his majesty

When he arises to terrify the earth.

22Renounce your ties with man,

Whose breath is in his nose,

For what is he considered worth?
